Cata - Blackrock Caverns

Used this to level to 81 and avoid all the ppl in the questing zones. Got it more or less on farm with a random dps dying. Second boss still sometimes is a wipe but slowly perfecting this one. Third and fourth bosses are so damn easy if one follows the right strats.

Third boss I kill the two fire elementals away from boss down the hallway then simply position dps outside the grate, pickup boss and dps away as I run him through the edge of the fire every few seconds.

Fourth boss, have been killing 3/4 dogs. Kill boss. Might try without killing any dogs

Fith boss, run in, have dps near tank. Pop hero and dps. Swap target for boss as he changes. Remove debuff's. Done. I just heal through the adds when they hit my other toons. Since I position the other toons near boss they are getting hit by the tank anyway.

The instance was somewhat challenging till I got upgrades greens/blues as my toons weren't very geared

What sort of DPS are you pulling on your Priests? I imagine having 4x PS would make up for it being low but I'm curious.

DPS? I use 3 spells..Holy Nova for all trash smite,SWP and DEV plague for the bosses.. I never tested out dps they run about 4k spellpower each. I've never even used half of the spells they have. I'd imagine i might have to but i'm lazy and don't feel like making macros and stuff. Pain suppression? are you kidding I've never even used it. I should make a vid and show you what I do. I try to use the least amount of spells I can. That way if I ever get around to setting up round robin and macros it would be even easier. I heal the tank with penance and renew thats it and whatever he gets from holy nova going off. The 40 minutes it takes me is from leaving the keyboard and killing every trash in the place id imagine i could do it in far less if I cared to but blizz nerfed the hell out of aoe spamming so I can't pull trash like I used to. I could do 16 mobs in HPoS trash pulls at a time with just holy nova and nothing else. Now the healing is divided up among targets so what used to be instant 12k heals for the whole group now is now aboout 4000-4500 and 7k crits from nova. WHat should my dps be? my ilvl is 289 on them and i havent equipped but a few things from BRC on the priests and one thing on my tank.

Rom'ogg Bonecrusher - Pretty much the same as normal except now there are adds that spawn when he casts quake. Make sure you strafe out of quake immediately and keep your tank up. Pre heal before the MS cooldown to avoid waisting mana... use tank cooldowns when you are tanking the adds + the boss. Kill the chains and move IMMEDIATELY or you will die his aoe cleave goes off a hell of a lot faster in heroic. The adds will die to the bosses cleave. Rinse and Repeat.

Corla, Herald of Twilight - If anyone gets 100 stacks they get MCd and it's a wipe. If any of the adds get 100 stacks they
Evolve and it's a wipe. Easiest way I found is setup the 2 chars that will be beam tanking
the side beams. Have them target their add and line them up so they are straight on.
Then get your other 2 chars wherever you are comfortable with (remember there is a fear). I have
also stacked 2 toons on each side and like that positioning it's really up to you.

Finally get your tank and be ready to pull. Use IWT at the start of the fight to get
your side beam tanks in position while moving your tank up to get threat and beam tank the
center add. MAKE SURE YOUR SIDE BEAMS ARE IN POSITION. Failing to
get into the beams right away will cause a wipe. Next use quick
IWT and keypress back to face the side guys to the boss so that they are looking across from each
other. At 80 stacks keypress forward out of the beams. Continue dpsing till the debuff
is about to fall off and keypress back into the beams. Do this 4 or 5 times
And you got her down.

Remember to interrupt the fear or stagger tremors. Beam positioning is
More important than dpsing. Worry about the beams first and dpsing 2nd.

Karsh Steelbender - Position your dps + heals inside the ring on the pull to avoid getting 1 shot from the lava vents.
Pull Karsh into the Lava and back out 1-2 stacks is ideal. Start dpsing once he has the debuff. Tank him near the ring so that you can dip back in just before the
debuff expires. Ideally you'll pick up only 1-2stacks per dip, but this boss is extremely buggy. Keep doing this dip in for 1-2 stacks... dps...right before debuff
is about to fall off dip back in etc... Once Karsh is up to 9-10 stacks you will need to pop tank cooldowns and watch the damage closely it get rough. Let the debuff fall off at this point, but be ready to dps the adds that spawn
quick. When the adds die they spawn lava pools so be ready to move, also note that if Karsh gets into one of these lava pools he will gain the debuff again. If this happens make sure that you do not let it fall off. If it falls
off you will get another set of adds. Once you down the adds repeat the cycle of dipping in for 1 or 2 stacks dps etc..

cleared it today, the last boss is a bit complicated, use focus unleash elements to taunt his adds, then you can heal your tank and he's taunting back then, those adds do a 96% heal reduce

Can you post tips for clearing Krush? How'd you handle the second boss in heroic?

Any strats on the first boss would be great, the adds are just killing me.

first boss, dps the boss, keep earthshock with 9 stacks ready for chains to oneshot them and run out of range
the adds should get killed by fire elementals/nova/thunderstorm and the tank, oh and yeah dont forget to run away when the adds are comming, they are spawning below each party member and deal a lot of damage when poping out so you have about 1-2 sec to run away when he's casting quake

2nd boss, well I'm uploading a video, not really hard I'm taking 2 beams and the tank the 3rd

Managing 2 beams is easier than 3 but either way it is essentially the same thing.

First boss it's all about the speed in which you kill the chains like krush said. If you 1 shot them you have tons of time to get the hell out of there.

What kind of DPS needed for 1st boss, in order to get out chains consistently.

I managed to get the first guy down after probably 8 tries, you can't make one mistake at my gear level....

What I did was use my Thunderstorm right when he did the chains, and it cut them to 1/2 health, and they basically were 1 shot from there.

Any time I saw him cast Earthquake, I IMMEDIATELY hit my strafe left or right key to avoid getting caught in it on all my guys. Then I grouped up again, put down magma totems to try and AOE the rest of the earth ele spans.
